I can't believe there isn't a thread on this, but:

Can't believe the fuss over it personally. It is a horrible costume, but I find it very amusing. Perhaps I'm a bit twisted!

Thoughts?

Been done before.

Eventually, you should be able to laugh at everything.

I'd bang that tower.......... no wait

 

[dowie]

good effort! uni fancy dress is supposed to be bad taste...

 

[Totality]

Just another case of the press trying to whip up a public frenzy over something most people couldn't care less about. A few people find it offensive and suddenly the press say whole countries are offended.

Can't believe the fuss over it personally.

Then why make the thread on it? It's obvious no one cares about it.

AWARD WINNING!*

[EdGey]

Certainly is bad taste...

Certainly is bad taste...

Which isn't a crime.

Honestly, people who take offence all the time at everything and anything need locking up

I don't understand the outrage, but at the same time I don't understand why anyone would even think of using a terrible event like that as an idea for their costume.

I'd wage jihad on them without a second thought

Mostly this.
It is a piece of history. A terrible event, but their costumes are reasonably accurate. They won the contest, so clearly the organisers were not offended.

I am a little unclear how the UK now functions, as any event that might cause implied offense seems to take presidence over actual crimes being committed each and every day that do hurt and damage people mentally and physically.

Seems an odd choice for a fancy dress. They were unlikely to meet anyone who was present at the events, so direct offence is minimal. I assume the papers needed a story.

I'd present a clear and present danger to the North tower, that's for sure.

 

[Skidder]

I'd probably find a grateful tower seven. It's the low hanging fruit.

I see two disasters and one of them is a train wreck

Because it's very funny
